The Larry Morris Memorial Scholarship

This educational and travel scholarship is intended to encourage and support a graduate level academic project in the field of mystical or spiritual literature, through an annual award of $2,500.  This project may be a scholarly analysis of an existing literary work(s) or an original creative work by the student (poetry, short story, book, etc.), or possibly a project to inspire and promote further inquiry into the field through travel and general reading/research.

University of New Mexico graduate students majoring in the field of English Literature or any Language/Literature Department or area relevant to contemporary spirituality/mysticism with a GPA of 3.2 or above may apply.  Outstanding upper division (Junior or Senior) undergraduates will also be considered.  Preference will be given to a project that relates to late 20th Century or early 21st Century spirituality, or contemporary issues that impact spirituality.
